Confession: I have never watched The Hills, Laguna Beach, The City, or anything else featuring Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, or anyone friends with Speidi Montag-Pratt. In fact, my sheer human survival instinct warned me as soon as I looked at the Pratt’s asymmetrical mug, that he was a threat to civilization. He and his wife look shifty and obnoxious.

And I listened to The Pratt’s new song “I’m a Celebrity”…(which is clearly the new theme song for NBC’s upcoming “I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here” reality show, starring Speidi, former NBA star John Salley (huh?), American Idol embarrassment Sanjaya, etc.)….and I’m so sorry…but…. it wasn’t as horrific as I know it should be.

(I feel like I just failed the eye-test in “I Am Legend” and I should be locked in the infected pen and left to die)

Complex: I saw that you’re trying to reach out to OJ Da Juiceman for him to get a verse on a Morales-produced track.

Spencer Pratt: Yeah, I’m trying to get him on my first real single because “I’m A Celebrity” is not my single. That’s just my marketing tool for the show. My first single, I just want to have me, Gucci Mane, and OJ Da Juiceman. It’ll be the flyest song in the game. I’m going to track them down, that’s my priority today.

More destruction of Western Civilization, courtesy of The Pratt after the jump….

Complex: Who’s rapping career would you use as a blueprint for yourself?

Spencer Pratt: I think I’m the future of hip-hop. You know, I feel bad for saying that. That’s unfortunate, but that’s a fact. You can’t compare my model of hip-hop with what I’m about to come out with versus anything in the game. You know I’ll take the Diddy route. I’m not a lyrical MC, I’m just like Diddy. Look what it did for him? He is still balling…

Complex: Now, Jay-Z had Memphis Bleek has a hypeman. Would Brody Jenner be your hypeman?

Spencer Pratt: Nah. A person who has a show called Bromance can’t be in on this clique.

Complex: You think that would hurt street cred?

Spencer Pratt: The Bromance show definitely hurts my street cred, so I’ll definitely distance myself from Brody as a hypeman. I’ll be pretty much be the first rapper/hypeman. I would take on both roles. I would wear both shoes. I’ll hype myself before I start rapping. I’ll get on the mic and be like, “Who is hotter than me in the game? No one.”

Complex: Interesting…

Spencer Pratt: The bottom line is, if every single platinum song right now wasn’t auto-tuned, then I would be like, “I can’t be a rapper.” The fact that I could get up to perfect pitch just like Kanye West now, and T-Pain, it’s an even playing field. I don’t have to have talent. I just need to have auto-tune and be allowed to have the hottest track in the game, and my swag.

SP: Right now to be honest Asher Roth. Once I heard him on Kiss FM when I was hearing him on Ryan Seacrest, I was like, “Oh my God, if this guy is on the radio I need to start rapping.” I’m about to be so platinum. This is a joke, God bless his heart. I went to high school with literally like I said 30 Asher Roths in Santa Monica and you know it’s hilarious that that’s what rap’s come to. I feel bad for the game. I’ve been the biggest hip-hop fan. I never thought I would have to go in and save the game, be the white hope in the game, but it’s happening. My calling is here.

XXL: So you’re not a fan of Asher Roth I take it?

SP: No, no, I mean I’m a fan of people that get money. And he’s obviously getting a couple songs. I think he broke top 10 iTunes so that’s a couple checks so I’ll respect anybody getting a check.

XXL: What you think about Eminem’s new album?

SP: I mean to be honest, I was the biggest Eminem fan, like huge Emimen fan but I was disappointed. I think when you lose the grind and hustle that I have right now at like 25, just get my fame shining as bright as he was when writing his best stuff you just have a whole different energy. And then when you got $300 million or whatever in the bank and you just chilling and you just wanna go and make a statement and you just go put out a track or two with Dre it’s just a different sound, so obviously he’s a lyrical genius-I’m not about to be trying to battle one of the founders of white hip-hop for me – but I’m not too amped on him. I’m feeling Nick Cannon over Eminem right now.

XXL: What are you going to rap about the mean streets of Hollywood?

SP: I mean- you know what- I’m rapping about—you know what honestly inspired me to rap when I read that Jay-Z said that rapping about being gangster is irrelevant. When I heard that I was like “hey what are you doing?” His last album was American Gangster. Like, this whole world is so gangster right now. How are you saying that man? You just make $500 million off of being a gangster. I mean I not saying I’m the new white gangster rapper but I’m just saying I’m ruthless, I’m disobedient. I don’t have rules. Everyone hates me. I’m more hated than Eminem was in his prime so why wouldn’t I get on the Steve Morales smash, trash Puerto Rican, you know straight from the hood pop bottles, you know?

XXL: Who’s producing? Steve who?

SP: Steve Morales. He did “Pop Bottles” for Lil Wayne and Birdman. And that’s another thing what is gangster rap right now? Now that I’m in hip-hop, I read your magazine, I’m always like, what’s up with Lil Wayne kissing Birdman, what’s up with people be cops secretly? How is a cop also—are they just crooked cops? Is that it? I don’t get that. I also don’t understand—there’s just so many things in hip-hop that are just like—Spencer Pratt can go in hip-hop. Like the rules changed there’s no more Tupac and Biggie, you feel me?

XXL: So did you grow up with hip-hop? Or you just kind of like a newcomer?

SP: All I listened to was just Wu-Tang really just in high school. Just angry Wu-Tang, going to soccer games fired up ready to wild out on people.

So…..Am I actually agreeing with this Pratt about things like Jay-Z, Wu-Tang and Asher Roth? Is this happening?

Gucci and OJ if you fuck with this waste of sperm please rob him on the deal atleast. He is such a flake that he will probably even throw in his wife to seal the deal, that is let both of you run up in her and then bukate on her face. Also if for some fuckin crazy reason he makes money off his music Vanilla Ice him like Suge did.

No, No, and more No. This song was, in all probability, ghost-written by “Ya Boy” the now Malibu-based rapper who is assosciated with the same company Pratt works for. I hope this explains why it is not as terrible as you would have thought.

While ghost-written tracks are not uncommon in hip-hop, this is not hip-hop. This is not rap. This is just awful.

This is the same musical culture that allows Soulja Boy to top the charts, Joe Buddens to call out Meth, overweight deadbeat dads to proclaim themselves the cocaine-dealing boss, auto-tune to outweigh lyricism, ringtone downloads to take priority over elevating the artform…etc.

Ok, so… why do i totally agree with him and his views on Em, Jay, Big, Pac and Asher. reading this whole thing was like an episode of Lost mixed with the Matrix, Info. i don’t know where I end or where I begin! Damnnnnnn youuuu for posting this! arghhhhhhhhh, brain cramps!!!!!

Spencer Pratt: The bottom line is, if every single platinum song right now wasn’t auto-tuned, then I would be like, “I can’t be a rapper.” The fact that I could get up to perfect pitch just like Kanye West now, and T-Pain, it’s an even playing field.

Just wanted to put emphasis on that when they ask who killed hip hop.

Some of what this dude is saying is true but that song is horrible. That shit about Asher Roth is truth.com, it’s so many cats out here who freestyle dumb shit just like Asher Roth who have no business making records.

Shit you twist me a mean L and I can record a Asher Roth album (or better if you’re making it about race). I’m thinking a lot of his interview was tongue-in-cheek shit he heard from Ya Boy but it’s mostly true. It’s shit you’ve all said or thought, that autotune shit and Soulja Boy got everybody thinking they can make a couple bucks rapping. Shit is the new pyramid scheme.

look around, asshat. what $$$ are you talking about? I still have nothing but cheap ass googleads, genius.
Also…. I report on whatever I think is weird, or interesting or annoying or hilarious or good. Note the “or.”
And this is hilarious to me, and annoying. So its a two-fer.

There’s plenty of MCs that are “ill” that I show love to. And some that I think are ill but I havent posted about yet.

@ Miss Info *Dead* Please lock yourself in a room and listen to Orgainzed Kufusions, “Fudge Pudge” several hundred times, cause this joint you have posted is basura and we need the Old Miss Info back. STAT!

This is like elevator muzak; although you hum to it, you still don’t really like it…..

Miss info thank you for posting this. at first I was ready to hate on this dude. But he does make alot of sense. People can call the song trash. But I have heard alot worse. It isnt that bad. He is just really outspoken which will always bring haters.

But this isnt about him, Its about how we are in a time of change. We all dont see it yet. The world is changing and so is entertainment. I think everyone would feel better. If they took it as entertainment and not so personal.

If you don’t like what hip hop is doing.. Just like your on missinfo site. go research and find the artist that are not pushed that sastify your music needs. Millions of artist to check out .. Or you can complain about what the mainstream puts out .

I never watched those shows above, so I don’t know who is Spencer Pratt. There are definitely a lot worse songs out there. The flow wasn’t bad to me at all. I bet it was probably ghost written. As far as rap going down….that’s old news. There is no respect for rap, and how could you knock this guy when all the supposed m.c.’s do nothing but talk about disrepectful shit like killin, demonizing women, drugs…etc. The nowaday m.c. doesn’t respect hip hop, and the outside crowd noticed this, found a loop hole to jump in, and now you have people like a S. Pratt in the game, who will prolly sell more than the average and get rich off of it. He prolly studied how to pick up swag, and image, and now he’ll run with it. Why not, nobody else (well like 99.9%)does it for the art or love of it anymore, why should this white kid? GET YOUR FUCKIN MONEY SPENCER! YEAH DUDE!

Wow I really laughed when I saw him in the Kevin casey rap video. Now that made me laugh. He looked like he had no rythm, which makes me kinda really feel like that song was ghost written. And Kevin Casey had like 3 fights dude, and got whupped by Ikuhisa “The Punk” Minowa.

Once in a while I’d tune in to the Hills (for the girls!!!) but Spencer made me so mad I couldn’t watch it. He’s a complete waste. Like a stoner burn-out but with money from his rich parents. He doesn’t contribute anything. See my icon? That’s him.

I refuse to use my regular moniker on ANY post regarding a dipshit like this. It might be misogynist to point out but teenage tweenage materialistic girl/women are absolute SHIT! And they will absolutely eat this up. The worst part about this is not the music, but the fact that he won’t have to get out and tour like a real musician!!!!! That bitch is begging to see what hiphop is all about and my wolves are salivating for a mothafucka like that but I’m not buying a Hannah Montana ticket just get at that bitch! Sooooo I wish him lots of success, you people will probably elect him to an office one day as well.

Second thank you for posting Spencer’s interview and song. I personally know Spencer Pratt, and I’ll tell you this, he has a lot of friends are REAL HIP HOP ARTISTS.He actually has a lot of respect and love for HIP HOP. HE’S NOT TRYING TO MAKE A MOCKERY OF IT. HE TRYING TO PROVE A POINT OF HOW FAR IT HAS FALLEN. LET’S BE SERIOUS BIGGIE AND 2PAC ROLLING IN THEIR GRAVES SEEING A KID LIKE ASHNER ROTH HAS MORE HYPE AND BUZZ THAN GHOSTFACE KILLAH OR CROOKED I.

His reasoning he states for BECOMING A RAPPER, is 100 percent dead on. Look what HIP HOP HAS BECOME? ARE YOU SERIOUS? We would rather have SOULJA BOY SELL A MILLION COPIES THAN an ARTIST LIKE JADAKISS? WTF IS THAT. AND he right about JAY-Z, what thE hell is he doing saying GANGSTER RAP IS DEAD? DOG SOMEONE WITH AS MUCH INFLUENCE AS JAY-Z SHOULD NEVER HAD MADE THAT STATEMENT. JAY-Z MADE 500 MILL OFF GANGSTER RAP, AND NOW HE DONE WITH IT. SO HE SHITTING ON IT, BECAUSE IT MAKES HIM NO MONEY ANY LONGER? He just possibly SHUT THE DOOR, on some 16 year old KID who has TALENT, and is DEALING DRUGS TO SURVIVE AND EVERYDAY IS LOOKING FOR A WAY OUT THE HOOD LEGALLY.

AND THIS AUTO – TUNE CRAZE KILLED HIP HOP. I MEAN FIRST OF ALL W EHAVE T-PAIN IN INTERVIEWS TELLING PEOPLE THEY SHOULDN’T USE AUTO- TUNE UNLESS THEY HOLA AT HIM FIRST? THIS NIGGA DIDN’T START AUTO TUNE. ROGER TROUTMAN (R.I.P.) DID. AND T- PAIN NEVER MENTIONS HIS NAME OR ACKNOWLEDGES HIM. T- PAIN OWES ROGER’S FAMILY A BIG CHECK, IF YOU AGREE WITH HIS RATIONALIZATION OF PEOPLE NEED TO PAY HIM FOR THE RIGHT TO USE AUTO TUNE.

HOPEFULLY Spencer, putting out this album will show how far we let a CULTURE, that SAVED SO MANY LIVES, and got so many PEOPLE OUT OF THE HOOD AND BAD SITUATIONS, and GAVE A VOICE TO THE PEOPLE WHO AREN’T EVER COMING HOME FORM JAIL, OR WHO HAD TO TAKE A LIFE TO SURVIVE, A VOICE. It put a spot light on a place EVERYONE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT, EXPLOIT, AND MAKE MOVIES ABOUT, BUT NEVER WNAT TO LIVE THERE OR VISIT. THE HOOD.

THAT’S WHY I respect 50 CENT so much. He showed the MONEY IS MEANT TO CHANGE YOUR CIRCUMSTANCE, IT’S NOT MEANT TO CHANGE THE MAN OR YOUR PRINCIPLES.

This might sound crazy, but maybe Spencer Pratt can save hip hop, by showing how it’s been destroyed.

I think thats a reason why the world is coming to an end tho curiosity… iuno its like some doors should stay closed but nowadays we can try everything and some things just should not be tried i guess lol

Don’t feel bad Info cuz a few weeks ago I was on Complex.com and after hearing the track I remember telling my boys that it wasn’t that bad. Their blank stares still haunt me till this day. It reminds me of the time when I admitted to a girl that I played the flute in the 4th grade. Ok…I’m revealing too much. Anyhow, just wanted to let you know you’re not alone.

Cosign #35… its shit like this, soulja boy and myriad of other “corny soundin muther fuckas” that makes me angry. I’m only 23 and I missed hip-hop’s Golden Era but I get the feeling shit like this wouldn’t happen back in the day… A white man exploiting our art to make money…

It also makes me laugh cause it reminds me of a Paul Mooney joke… A white man on a beach stumbles across a magic lamp and a genie pops out… Genie says I been stuck in there for three thousand years and i don’t have time to talk so just think about your three wishes and I’ll grant them… poof he’s suddenly in a huge mansion… Poof he’s suddenly surrounded by dozens of beautiful women, then suddenly there’s a knock at the door and its the KKK and the kill leave him danglin from a tree… Now the genie is talkin with his genie friends and says “After 3,000 years people still want the same stuff, a big house and lots of women… but his last wish confused me… He said he wanted to be hung like a black man…

If u don’t know this Ya boy aka ybtherockstar ghost write this track everyone who knows them knows he wrote it. But it’s fo a fact that ya boy didn’t give him his best work.. haha keep that for yourself YB. haha but he’s confindent he’s doing his thing because he pays the #1 unsigned hype hahaaaa.. some shit huh
